It can't be argued!

It's a fact!

It does force poor shot selection and it also doens't require a well executed defense. The defense only has to defend for about 2/3 of the shot clock. After that, the offense will usually take any shot they can get. If the goal of HS is to teach fundamental basketball, a shot clock is counter to that goal.
